Illinois 8/15/25, 11:00 AM 8/12/25, 11:00 AM IVHQ- Emergency Notice - Laundry Services
The Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs has issued an emergency procurement for laundry services at the Quincy Veterans Home in Adams County, targeting a critical service need from 09/29/2025 to 12/27/2025. The contract with Denman Services Inc. encompasses comprehensive linen management, including scheduled pickup and delivery of healthcare linens three times per week, covering patient gowns, bed linens, towels, washcloths, chuck pads, and blankets. The services required involve complex processing steps such as sorting, inspection, pre-treatment, high-temperature washing, sanitization, drying, ironing, and packaging of institutional linens. Denman was selected based on their immediate service readiness, local presence, commercial-grade equipment, and workforce experienced in institutional laundry services. The emergency procurement is categorized as essential for preventing disruption of critical state services that directly impact health and safety, with a focused objective of maintaining continuous, high-quality linen services for veterans.
The procurement demonstrates a preference for local service providers, with specific considerations given to Business Enterprise Program (BEP) vendors, though in this instance, the nearest BEP-certified provider was deemed operationally unfeasible due to geographical and logistical constraints. The emergency contract is valued at $230,000 and will be funded through State Appropriated Funds, indicating a significant investment in maintaining essential veterans' care infrastructure. No specific restrictions were noted regarding organizational types permitted to respond, though the emergency nature and specialized service requirements suggest a need for vendors with substantial institutional laundry experience. The contract duration is relatively short, spanning approximately three months from late September to late December 2025, which suggests a temporary solution to an immediate service gap. The procurement process prioritized rapid deployment of services with minimal administrative delay, focusing on operational continuity and quality of service for the veterans' facility.
